What can you use this qualification for? You will acquire skills needed for higher level management in the feed milling industry and related industries. This Master study is also an excellent background for further scientific research activity in feed technology.
Why study Feed Manufacturing Technology?
• The study gives you unique knowledge about nutrition and processing technology.
• The competence is strongly needed in the feed industry.
• Your expert knowledge within animal feed production gives you many career opportunities.
What will I learn? The curriculum consists of a combination of nutritional, technological, chemical and physics topics, which combined will represent an unique approach to a this topic.
Contents of the programme You will get hands-on experience with the various types of equipment and production lines by fully integrating the possibilities offered by the Centre for Feed Technology in the programme.
Teaching and training will partly be based on lectures, but a considerable part will be offered as demonstrations and training in groups.
The courses are mainly taught by staff from UMB but external experts from the feed industry and international companies and institutions will also be called in when appropriate.
Compulsory courses:
Feed Manufacturing Technology
Advanced Feed Manufacturing Technology
Feed Production Planning and Management
Feed Optimalisation for Different Species
Heat Engineering
Proteins, Polysaccharides and Fats/Oils
The rest will be optional courses and master thesis
